The Sunglass Fix has made a conscious decision not to carry glass lenses. Glass is heavy, breaks, and can be difficult for customers to replace in their frames. Glass has no flexibility so is prone to breaking frames or the lenses upon install.
From a quality aspect The Sunglass Fix lenses are made from a material called Polyamide which is flexible, lightweight and strong. The polyamide is similar to Trivex, a newer technology in lenses and provides very similar optical clarity to glass. This is far superior to Polycarbonate lenses which have a much higher aberration and refraction index.
Glass is hard therefore inherently scratch resistant. However, our lenses also have strong scratch protection and we feel that if you weigh up the added comfort of a lightweight lenses that doesn't break on impact you'll find our can last longer than glass. We expect our lenses to last 2-5 years if not longer if taken care of. Polarized typically have a marginally shorter lifespan than regular lenses due their complex construction.
Hi Mike, if you use PayPal express (hit the yellow button) rather than going through the entire checkout and then hitting PayPal you won't have to enter address information.
PayPal express is the only option that will bring back you shipping
information to websites. Traditional PayPal payments act just like a
credit card in that you can put whatever address you want then use
PayPal just to pay. The information you enter on our site remains the
primary information for shipping.
Hope that helps, Craig and the Sunglass Fix Team
Unfortunately The Sunglass Fix is unable to make single mask lenses that cover both eyes. The frames must support two separate lenses. We are hoping that we will have this technology in the future but at the present time the only option we can point you to is contacting the oriiginal manufacture. If they are unable to help you please consider getting sunglasses with two lenses for your next purchase and The Sunglass Fix will keep them scratch free for years.
Hi, we have an area dedicated on our site to DIY Repairs.
As for cleaning lenses, we would suggest that periodically you use warm, soapy water to clean your sunglass frames and lenses.
Before you start with your dishes and the water is clean, pop in your sunglasses and use your fingers to rub the lenses and frame and clean off any grime build up.
Once complete, use your microfiber cloth to dry them off and remove any excess water.

The Sunglass Fix prefers that customers place an order before
shipping their sunglasses in for new custom made lenses. We handle a lot
of sunglasses at any point in time. In order for us to process your
orders efficiently and keep our cost down we need to be able to open a
job and work on it until it is ready for return delivery.
If we have to call up customers to figure out what lenses they want,
collect payments, and get an order into the system the time it takes
increases dramatically. This holds up other customers getting their work
completed and increases our cost which will eventually have to be
passed on by our raising prices.
The Sunglass Fix designs, shapes, packages, and ships all of its
lenses from it's central lab in Australia. We calculate that this is
approximately 70% of the final product components which legally allows
us to state they are Australian Made.
We also use 100% Green energy (renewable energy) to run our entire
Australian lab making our lenses one of the best environmental choices
available for consumers.
We do source some raw materials from overseas. For example, we source
our politicisation film from Japan. We feel they have one of the best
performing and natural film available.
We also have contract manufactures overseas that product our lens raw
materials. However, then entire lens manufacturing process is strictly
controlled on all levels of the production process ensuring we only
produce Grade A lenses for all of our customers.
We pride ourselves in quality delivered at the most cost effective level possible.

Our goal is to help customers get new lenses in their sunglasses. We will do almost anything to ensure this happens.
Customers wanting Custom Made lenses or just having us install the lenses for you can take as little as 1.5 weeks but generally longer due to the postal time involved with getting your frames back and forth to our lab.

The Sunglass Fix will email you as soon as it's physically dispatched. Almost all orders placed before 1pm Australian Eastern Time are dispatched on the same business day. Mondays can be an exception due to processing of weekend orders. Orders placed on Monday after 10am are usually processed on Monday but ship on Tuesday.
No, we do not have any branding on our lenses.
Sorry, due to the extremely high cost AMEX charges us, (ariound 6% of the sale), we can not accept it and keep our prices low. However, we do accept Visa, MasterCard, PayPal, and most Debit Cards with the Visa or MasterCard emblem.
Contact your card company first and tell them to cancel your card
because it's been stolen. Then contact us so that we can liaise with
your card company to get the money refunded.
It's important to point out, as most consumers do not realize this,
The Sunglass Fix, not the credit card company's bear the entire cost of
this theft. We loose our product and have to refund the money. The
credit card companies take no responsibility when their products are
misused.
However, since all our payments go through a rigorous payment processing using PayPal's credit card facilities it is highly unlikely a stolen card or card information could be used.
The Sunglass Fix may charge $10.00 for each pair of lenses that
require restocking. This fee does not apply if The Sunglass Fix is at
fault or the product is defective.
We try to do everything to ensure customers get great products at a
great price. We provide free worldwide shipping and perform exchanges
for customers for any reasons they may have to help ensure you get what
you want.
However, one of our biggest operational cost is fulfilling orders
multiple times due to customers wanting a different colour or ordering
the wrong lenses for their sunglasses. Restocking the returned lenses is
harder than it sounds. When lenses are returned they have to be
carefully inspected for damage, repackaged and labeled, and put back
into inventory. Many times the lenses have to be discarded due to poor
packing on the customers side.
Please understand. we try our best to understand how the problem
occurred. If it's our responsibility in any way there will be no fee.
However, if customers ordered the wrong size or colour we the restocking
fee will be charged.
If the products were damaged in-transit then please contact us and
we'll exchange them for you or refund you in full when they are
returned.
We have been mailing lenses around the world for 7 years now so have designed our mail packaging in a manner that makes this an extremely rare case.
The Sunglass Fix will exchange your lenses for the correct model or a different color or refund you in full upon return of the incorrect lenses.
The Sunglass Fix has a 6 month return policy.
If for any reason you are not happy with the product you can return the lenses for a refund.
We strive to make replacing your lenses an economically viable option
over buying a new pair. That's why we offer free shipping to all
countries in the world.
We also heavily subsidize other shipping services such as DHL ecommerce and Australia express Post which do provide tracking. If tracking is important please select these options during checkout.
Tracking service is available as a check out option as an additional
expense. If for some reason tracking is not available to your country
(usually this implies your country has not updated it's postal system to
the global tracking standard) we will notify you and refund the
tracking service fee or entire order if you do not want us to ship
without tracking.
